1 Jul 2013- Internal demonstration of 3 devices with pros/cons/observations
1. User #72935- Gumstix
2. User #72936- Raspberry Pi
3. User #72937- Cotton Candy
  1. Pros
    1. Internal Operating System Choices
      1. Android
      2. Ubuntu
  2. Observations
    1. External host Operating Systems (SC2 connection for uploads and updates needs to be worked/resolved to ensure no security violations occur).
      1. Mac (Works as advertised for both Android and Ubuntu Cotton Candy Operating Systems)
      2. Linux (Has not worked using Ubuntu 10, 11, or 12 CDCompact Disk Installs).
      3. Windows (Has not worked using internal Development Install Disk).
    2. Device sometimes quits unexpectedly.
    3. Item when in use becomes fairly hot relative to human touch.
    4. Compilation
      1. Internal compiler with vi and make files creates and builds a executable "Hello World" C program.
      2. Cross Compilers (Not tested yet)
8 Jul 2013- Requirements List used for evaluation
1. Requirements:
  1. Copy Floppy Disks to SD card on small miniature computer's SD card
    1. dd (Verified using Raspberry Pi)
  2. Operator Feedback mechanisms
    1. GPIO Pin LEDs
    2. Thumper (Pulse width modulation)
    3. Internal LEDs
  3. On Disk Encryption/Decryption
  4. Compression
    1. zlib (lempel-ziv)
    2. Others
  5. Daemons via Systemd for all 3 candidates
  6. Copy Time estimates: (1 minute per floppy disk measure using Raspberry PI)
  7. Common USBUniversal Serial Bus driver developments/observations (All 3 Candidates have usb drive interfaces, so we should consider how to build our own drivers for new devices)
11 Jul 2013- User #72936- Code Review (Time TBD)
1. Systemd scripts- (User #72936)
2. C Source Code- (User #72936)
15 Jul 2013- Architecture Selection
29 Jul 2013- Final Package Selection

Gumstix Overo EarthSTORM + Pinto-TH Breakout Board

Using User #72938's unsupported Linux 3.5 image (sakoman-usb-gadget-multi-getty-image.tar.bz2),
- includes USBUniversal Serial Bus multi-gadget kernel module (g_multi.ko), which contains:
  - mass storage (g_mass_storage.ko)
  - serial console (g_serial.ko)
  - ethernet (g_ether.ko)

uses systemd for process/service management
